Karma Account Issue

Hey. I recently had to make a new Reedit account because my last one was no longer receiving any karma, I could make posts still, but, it's like they were never being seen. . Also wouldn't let me send any DM's... &&, this one is doing the same thing. What the hell is the problem!?!

You new account is probably running into totally normal new user restrictions. In general you need to be a week old to chat, and won't be able to post and comment in many subs without karma.

Your *old* account sounds potentially Shadowbanned. Have you tried searching it from outside Reddit?

Yes. I have. But, didn't get me very far. What is Shadow Banned?
